Great Historical Commission (Great Britain)

The Great Historical Commission (also known as the Commission on Historical Statues and Monuments) in Great Britain was established to address the complex legacies of historical figures and events, particularly in the context of statues and monuments. It evaluates whether these commemorations should remain, be removed, or be contextualized due to their associations with colonialism, slavery, or other controversial aspects of British history. The Commission aims to foster public understanding and engage communities in discussions about how history is represented in public spaces, reflecting contemporary values and perspectives.
